Can an association self-manage or do they need to hire a manager?
Many associations choose to contract with an outside individual or managing entity, however the Condominium Act does not require any condominium association to do so. The association may be self-managed if it so chooses. If an association decides to hire a manager to assist the board of directors, the manager may be required to be licensed as a Community Association Manager (CAM) under Part VIII, Chapter 468, Florida Statutes. Condominium: Sections 718.111(3), and 468.431, F.S. Cooperative: Not addressed in Chapter 719, F.S.
